If you have a collection of movies on DVD's that you no longer watch, or music on CD's that you never listen to anymore, you might be interested in trading out these unused articles of entertainment for movies or music that you do want. Believe it or not, there are places on the Internet where you can do this.
The first, and very interesting place is BarterBee.com. Here you can swap out DVD's, CD's and video games. And the good news is you can trade out one form of media for another. For instance, if you want to trade a video for a game, you can do it. When you list your items on BarterBee, you don't list them with a price, you list them with points. You build up points when someone buys an item of yours...then you use your points to buy something you want. Each trade you make costs $1.00.
Another good site that is for DVD's only is Peerflix.com. Here, you list your unwanted DVD's and when someone buys them, you get credits. Then, you use your credits to again get what you want. Each trade is only $.99 cents. When you mail off your DVD, you don't mail it in the case, so postage is only one stamp. Membership is free, and when you join, you get a free DVD of your choice.
I've saved what may be the best one for last. It is TitleTrader.com. Here you can swap CD's DVD's, and video games...plus you have the added bonus of being able to swap videotapes, books and magazines. Trades are free...you only pay for postage. Again, after you list your items and people begin buying them, you get credits so you can purchase other items that are listed. You can also buy credits for a price. Membership is free.
Another interesting aspect of TitleTrader is that you rate sellers much like you do on eBay. And when you write your first rating, you get three items for free.
Check out each of these web sites and see how they work. You might find them to be very useful and an inexpensive way to get new music, movies, and even books.
